12/01/15 Anime Episode Review

First Anime Review Post!

Can't. Stop. Laughing.

Last year i decided that I only going to watch Vanguard, Log Horizon, iM@S, KuroBas, amd Gundam shows.
and then I added Assasination Classroom because my friend was watching that show on class and i noticed something... yellow.
If during following season I find some new, interesting shows I might write some few things about them.

Kuroko no Basuke

Kuroko's position supposed to be a Small Forward.

The first episode mainly about a review to sum up last season of KuroBas, and introducing new rival, Shogo Haizaki from Shizuoka's Fukuda Sogo High School.

The good thing come from new OP and ED that ridiculously good, especially that OP.

But, the best thing for a Basketball player such as myself was the cut-scene between 2 part of the show itself (I do not know the exact name, thus i naming it Mid-Break) which looked like something ESPN or something from real basketball match.

This season gonna be all about Seirin's way to become Winter Cup's Champions and avoiding a Nude Confession their coach forced us to do.

From the OP i think i can safely assume that Kise Ryota and friend gonna be beaten by Shogo Haizaki's Fukuda Sogo and it will be something around Seirin vs Fukuda and Seirin vs Rakuzan.

7/10 for 1st episode since much improvement and the episode give me some pictures on how the season going to be.

Assasination Classroom

Max speed of Mach 20.. seriously..

Assasination Classroom's first episode was good. REAL GOOD.

The show started with something approaching a school in the middle of nowhere, showing the doubts(?) of the students, and a tentacle.

This show based on a manga which currently on-going I believe (not much of a Manga reader myself) and told us the stories of a class from a well-known and prestigious high school that composed of misfits. Their class is isolated in the school's old campus and it located in the middle of a mountain. Their peaceful, gloomy, and bland days changed 180 degree because they were tasked by the Japan government to kill.. their teacher. and thus the journey of Nagisa-kun (?) and friend to kill their teacher before graduating.

The art looked like Danganronpa and able to show the gloomy and sometimes weird atmosphere of the class. The opening is ridiculous. and the show ended with AMAZING ED.

8/10 because showing what the show is going to be with perfect amount of description for how this all happened. and Mach 20.

The iDOLM@STER :

Cinderella Girl

Do you interested on being an idol?

FINALLY.. I'm a huge fans of iM@S franchise and was waiting for some quite time for new iM@S show to be aired.

The show started showing a preparation for the Cinderella Girls' concert, where 3 young girls bumped to each other and dropped a box of shoe made from glass and picked up by supposed to be our Producer-san.
The next thing happened after a hell of good OP was an introduction to one of our Main Character, Uzuki Shimamura and her meeting with Producer-san.
Things happened and this episode became the Recruitment & Introduction episode, which is normal.

6/10 because it was your general Idol Anime first episode. Nothing worth mentioning beside the OP and ED song that was REAL GOOD.

Log Horizon

Kero-nardo..

Log Horizon's 14th episode was all about old leader of the infamous Debauchery Tea Party leader, Kanami and her company journey from the China Server to Japan Server.

The episode showed us some good action scene, since the battle itself was kind of short.

there's also a pretty deep history background on Coppelia, Kero-nardo and Coppelia possible shipping, and Erius Hackblade's mental breakdown moment when facing the opponent.

7/10 because some detailed and complex explanation of Kanami's journey and her subordinates unique background, but it would be better if the battle scene wasn't bland. At least I need a bit more action when Kanami, Erius, and Coppelia faced Genius of Healing, Paps. But they put some deep mental breakdown instead.

Gundam Build Fighters Try

And there goes another batch of money for a HG kit.

GBF Try 13th episode was covering on Sekai's participation on a Royal Battle against other team that participating on the Nationals.

As usual, we got a perfect 50:50 combination of action and story. Started with Sekai meeting a cute girl at the middle of the night in the workshop, they ended up doing something forbidden. (letting your Gunpla getting touched by a person you doesn't even know her/his name is forbidden)

With her help, Sekai could repaired the Build Burning in one night.

after a few things, Sekai stuck up on a Royal Battle and he showed what he capable of against the top candidate for the 4th Meijin Kawaguchi, Kajima Wilfrid (no. not Wilfried) and his Transient Gundam which in first look was a combination of Exia, and AGE-FX / AGE-1 Special iteration from the game. Oh god I love Transient because it is full of white and my favorite Pilot,Woolf Enneacle gonna love it too.

9/10 because Transient, and Sekai's new move, and pretty good battle part.

Cardfight!! Vanguard G

GRANBLUE!

CFVG 11th episode still about the interaction and relationship between Chrono and other characters.

This time, it is about Chrono and Jaime relationship in which they have a mutual respect on each other.

The show started with Mamoru against Jaime in an Interleague match. in that match, it as clear as day that Jaime was a direct spirit descendant of Leon Souryu for his affinity with triggers.

After a fierce battle, Chrono felt something about that match and he want to test his ability to find out what kind of feeling that came to him when the first time he played Vanguard before.

After some filler at the orphanage, Chrono and Jaime agreed to do a match later.

7/10 because filler fight, but showed us a good moment in terms of Chrono's mental development. and we might have a first full fight game next week!!

Thus conclude this week's Anime Episode review!!

If you have a good anime for recommendation and want that show to be reviewed here, just comment!!
